SOMEONE WILL ASSIST YOU SHORTLY dives deep into the psyche of a hospice nurse grappling with his personal demons while caring for his father, who’s both abusive and cognitively impaired. The film nails that sense of suffocating isolation, and you can really feel the weight of his panic. The pacing is deliberate, almost painfully slow at times, which amplifies the tension. It’s raw, almost unfiltered in its approach to familial bonds and the struggle for compassion amidst resentment. Performances are strikingly authentic, capturing that fraught mix of duty and despair. The practical effects are simple but effective, serving the story rather than overshadowing it. A unique take on care and conflict, definitely one that lingers in your thoughts.
